Apologies for the lack of weblog posts lighting upwards your RSS feeds. Blame it on move (always a fantastic excuse), the lack of bully eats or to a greater extent than probable the laziness inwards editing tons of pictures. I tin sack imagine rotten tomatoes hitting me presently if I don't larn my human activity together.
Kicking off my supply to beingness a respectable nutrient blogger that effervescently raves on well-nigh her daily repast coupled alongside lickable droolworthy pictures, I firstly off alongside i of the best (and in all probability the exclusively i I become to constantly) Thai places inwards town, Erawan Classic Thai & Fusion.
The occasion for my epiphany was appropriately the Thai New Year's Day aka Songkran festivities. The Erawan "brothers" Anan too Korn had invited us to part alongside them, their large celebration...an afternoon of never endless pleasurable delights that tickled our tummies too knocked the socks out of us.
Everything was exquisitely prepared past times the talented too dedicated Korn who loves to pamper us alongside the magical dishes he conjures from his kitchen. It was too fourth dimension for us to relish some specially prepared dishes, they don't produce all the fourth dimension similar the catch pleasing lotus bloom salad too the silky smoothen ability packed H2O lily stalk soup. The whole view of a lotus bloom salad is only thence amazing every bit who knew those pinkish petals could live on eaten. There's no distinct sense of savor to the flowers but it acts similar magical vessel that felt similar something the fairies would accept eaten. In fact, it felt genuinely magical peculiarly when nosotros donned jasmine garlands for the festivities (no H2O was thrown though). We all loved the H2O lily stalk soup -slightly crunchy stems coupled alongside smoothen cod fish, aeroplane catch chillies too the fragrant kokosnoot milk scented broth.
There was thence many to a greater extent than goodies nosotros had the whole afternoon that I couldn't halt eating. The liat was endless: huge Thai otak-otak laden alongside flaky white fish, the crunchy dear missive of the alphabet salad, the crispy papaya salad, Thai laksa, crispy salmon, the delectable banana seafood jump rolls, deep fried flaky catfish, deep fried stuffed chicken wings, Thai fishcakes, beef too eggplant salad. Even the sambal alongside the vegetables had all the guests gasping for seconds. We too had a guide a opportunity to sample the cockle salad, an odd pairing of mango shreds alongside blanched cockles too a fusion agency pandan parcel, non stuffed alongside chicken but the to a greater extent than luxe salmon.
Before nosotros knew it the afternoon was almost over too it was fourth dimension for desserts - a choice of homemade H2O ice creams including this gorgeous dark rose H2O ice cream (they select inwards special rose syrup from Europe), teeny weeny bananas alongside a salty tasty thick kokosnoot sauce too pandan sago that looked similar frog eggs mingling alongside dark beans (possibly the tadpoles?) inwards kokosnoot milk broth.
I could wax on lyrically well-nigh the nutrient but I'll spare all of you. The nutrient hither ever seem to weave its magic unopen to me too every bit usual, nosotros accept already made plans for the adjacent see alongside special dishes. One can't hold off every bit I tin sack imagine what a wonderful level it'll be. More pictures are inwards the Flickr set.
